Digger is expected to earn about $3 million in its second weekend, according to TheWrap's estimates. That would be a drop of roughly 60% from its $8 million opening and would lift its ten-day domestic total to about $14 million.
The film, directed by Alejandro G. Iñárritu and starring Tom Cruise, opened in 3,321 theaters on October 2. It had earned about $9.9 million through its first five days, as we reported earlier in the week. TheWrap's report describes the run as a likely box office bomb.
The film remains a talking point for critics and fans, even as the numbers fall. Our opinion piece on Digger makes the case that it may be remembered for more than its opening weekend. You can also read our earlier report on its opening.
Weekend figures are early estimates based on Friday, and final numbers arrive on Monday.
